Wilton Wildlife Preserve & Park seeks volunteers for Trail Crew

The Wilton Wildlife Preserve & Park’s volunteer Trail Crew is looking for new members. The trail crew works on maintaining the Preserve & Park’s more than 14 miles of trails. It also helps to clear and build new trails and to build boardwalks and bridges as needed. Most of the trail work is done during the spring, summer and fall seasons.

There are several work days already planned in the months of April and May. The first is on Saturday, April 14(rain date April 15). Volunteers will be to construct a short boardwalk and short length of trail on the Fox parcel to get around a frequently flooded vernal pool and will involve carpentry and cutting brush. The next work day is planned for May12 (rain date May 13),where the crew will begin construction of the Frawley trail.

If you are interested in becoming a member of the volunteer trail crew, call the park office at 450-0321 or send an email to info@wiltonpreserve.org to receive more information.
